The Ghana National College student who allegedly raped a first-year female student has been remanded after appearing before court today.

The suspect Fredrick Ayisi was sent to the Cape Coast District Court 2 and was remanded into Police custody to reappear on 13-03-20 by Her Worship Gloria Mensah Bonsu.

Reports say the suspect lured the girl to a location outside the school and forcibly had sex with her.

Authorities of the school reported the matter to the police when it got their attention leading to his arrest.

By law, a district court has no jurisdiction to try rape cases so the case will be sent to the High court.
